[marie k]

Can anyone tell me the boarding time?The itinerary on the RC website says boarding at 5pm,I thought this was the sailing time.I haven't received my

documents for 8/7 yet.

Thanks

WE are sailing out of Phila. this Sunday - sailing time said 5, boarding time on documents is 2. I hope we can board much earlier as we usually do??? If anyone boards in Philly today and is going online from ship - please let us know the time you were able to board. It is usually much earlier than time stated on documents, but never boarded in Phila. before.

I always plan on getting to the pier around 11:00 AM and we generally don't have much of a wait to board the ship.

Our sailing time in January was 5:00 boarding time was 2:00 and we were on by 11:45 a.m. or so.

We were on the July 11 cruise from Cape Liberty. Sail time was listed as 5PM. We boarded around 12:30, and there were already people onbaord. You were not allowed access to cabins until 1PM, but lunch was being served in the Windjammer.

The earlier you go, the shorter the line to get on the ship. I agree with everyone else here. Board before noon for the shortest lines and you can get free lunch on the ship. (After all you are paying alot of money for the cruise - take advantage of the free lunch) There really isnt anything open but you can walk around the ship to get familar with it while waiting for it to leave port.

Thanks,everyone.

I hope you all have a great cruise.

Enjoy your cruise. We will be right behind you on the 7/31 sailing. I hope it is better than the reviews we have read on here.

boarding starts right behind me :-) Oh tell that brother that I'll be waiting to get on when he gets off on Sunday so he better hustle off the ship so I can get on!

sue: You *are* taking a digital camera, aren't you? You KNOW that we demand INSTANT gratification with a full, detailed, complete-with-pictures report as soon as you get back!

I got a disposable digital camera from CVS (it lets you preview and delete pics) and I PROMISE to go to get the pictures put onto disc as soon as I get back.

 

Other than that I don't own a digital camera (or a cell phone). I know, I'm the last person on earth not to have these things

[Merion_Mom]

No, my brother doesn't own a cell phone either, and it was MURDER trying to pick him up at the airport, since the police snap at your heels if you try to stop to look for an arriving passenger.

[bluehorizonlover123]

I own a cell phone but I dont own a digital camera. What's wrong with film pictures. They are so much easier to put in the album.

[Merion_Mom]

We have the best of both worlds - and a generational divide. Both of my kids own digital cameras, and I still use a 35mm camera that MY FATHER gave me _____ years ago. :D
